EYE CONTACT:
GASEOUS FORMALDEHYDE MAY CAUSE TEMPORARY IRRITAITON OR A
BURNING SENSATION. WOOD DUST CAN CAUSE MECHANAICAL IRRITATION.
SKIN CONTACT:
BOTH FORMALDEHYDE & VARIOUS SPECIES OF WOOD DUST MAY EVOKE
ALLERGIC CONTACT DERMATITS INSENSITIZED INDIVIDUALS.
INGESTION:
NOT LIKELY TO OCCUR.
INHALATION:
GASEOUS FORMALDEHYDE: MAY CAUSE TEMPORARY IRRITATION TO EYES
NOSE, THROAT. SOME REPORTS SUGGEST THAT FORMALDEHYDE MAY CAUSE
RESPIRATORY SENSITATION SUCH AS ASTHMA, AND THAT PER EXISTING
RESPIRATORY DISORDERS MAY BE AGGRIVATED BY EXPOSURE.
FORMALDEHYDE IS LISTED BY INTERNATIONAL AGENCY FOR RESEARCH ON
CANCER(LACR) AS A PROBABLE HUMAN CARCINOGEN THE NATIONAL
TOXICOLOGY PROGRAM(NTF) INCLUDES FORMALDEHYDE IN THE ANNUAL
REPORT ON CARCINOGENS. FORMALDEHYDE IS REGULATED BY OSHA AS A
POTENTIAL CANCER AGENT AND REGULATED BY CARB.
IN STUDIES INVOLVING RATS, FORMALDEHYDE HAD BEEN SHOWN TO CAUSE
NASAL CANCER AFTER LONG TERM EXPOSURE TO VERY HIGH
CONCENTRATIONS(14+PPM), FAR ABOVE THOSE NORMALLY FOUND IN THE
WORKPLACE USING THIS PRODUCT.
THE NATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTE(NCI) CONDUCTED AN EPIDEMIOLOGICAL
STUDY OF INDUSTRIAL WORKERS EXPOSED TO FORMALDEHYDE(PUBLISHED
JUNE 1986). THE NCI CONCLUDED THAT THE DATA PROVIDE LITTLE EVIDENCE
THAT MORTALITI FROM CANCER IS ASSOCIATED WITH FORMALDEHYDE
EXPOSURE AT THE LEVELS EXPERIENCED BY WORKERS IN THE STUDY.
WOOD DUST:
MAY CAUSE NASAL DRYNESS, IRRATATION AND OBSTRUCTION, COUGHING,
WHEEZING AND SNEEZING, SINUSITIS & PROLONGED COLDS HAVE ALSO BEEN
REPORTED. DEPENDING ON SPECIES MAY CAUSE RESPIRATORY
SENSITIZATION AND/OR IRRITATION. PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO WOOD DUST
HAS BEEN REPORTED BY SOME OBSERVES TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH NASAL
CANCER. WOOD DUST IS NOT LISTED AS A CARCINOGEN BY IARC, OR NTP, OR
OSHA. THE POSSIBLE BUILDING OF FORMALDEHYDE GAS PARTICULARLY
WHEN HIGH TEMPERATURES OCCUR.
DRILLING, SAWING, SANDING OR MACHINING WOOD PRODUCTS GENERATES
WOOD DUST, A SUBSTANCE KNOWN TO THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO CAUSE
CANCER. HIGHLY ADVISED TO AVOID INHALING WOOD DUST OR USE A DUST
MASK OR OTHER SAFEGUARDS FOR PERSONAL PROTECTION. CALIFORNIA
HEALTH AND SAFETY CODE SECTION 25249.6.
PRECAUTIONS, SAFE HANDLING:
3
FORMALDEHYDE:
PROVIDE ADEQUATE VENTILATION TO REDUCE THE
POSSIBLE BUILDING OF FORMALDEHYDE GAS,
PARTICULARLY WHEN HIGH TEMPERATURES OCCUR.
WOOD DUST:
AVOID DUSTY CONDITIONS AND PROVIDE GOOD
VENTILATION.
GENERALLY APPLICABLE CONTROL MEASURES:
VENTILATION:
PROVIDE ADEQUATE GENERAL AND LOCAL EXHAUST
VENTILATION TO KEEP AIRBORNE CONTAMINANT
CONCENTRATION LEVELS BELOW THE OSHA PEL.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT:
WEAR GOGGLES OR SAFETY GLASSES WHEN MANUFACTURING
OR MACHINING THE PRODUCT. WEAR NOSH/MSHA APPROVED
RESPIRATOR WHEN THE ALLOWABLE EXPOSURE LIMITS MAY
BE EXCEEDED. OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT SUCH AS
GLOVES AND OUTER GARMENTS MAY BE NEEDED DEPENDING
ON DUST CONDITIONS.
EMERGENCY & FIRST AID PROCEDURES:
EYES:
FLUSH EYES WITH LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER REMOVE TO
FRESH AIR.
IF IRRITATION PERSISTS, GET MEDICAL
ATTENTION.
SKIN:
WASH AFFECTED AREAS WITH SOAP AND WATER. GET
MEDICAL ADVISE IF RASH OR PERSISTENT IRRITATION OR
DERMATITIS OCCURS.
INHALATION:
REMOVE TO FRESH AIR, GET MEDICAL ADVICE IF PERSISTENT
IRRITATION, SEVERE COUGHING OR BREATHING DIFFICULTY
OCCURS.
